1But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:2That the aged men be sober,[1]Translatorís note:sober: or, vigilant grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.3The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness,[2]Translatorís note:holiness: or, holy women not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;4That they may teach the young women to be sober,[3]Translatorís note:sober: or, wise to love their husbands, to love their children,5To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.6Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.7In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,8Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.9Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;10Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.
